I got The Fog (1980) for 5 bucks at Wal-Mart. They've got a bunch of cheap 5 dollar films out for Halloween, even though a handful aren't horror flicks. From off the top of my head here's what they had:

Today was Goodwill Saterday...(half off prices...my wife loves the place...) ,so I wander over to the used cassete tapes ,maybe to find something among the drek of Andy Williams and Burl Ives tapes...and HUH?!?! I found -.the CIRCLE JERKS-Group Sex.the BAD BRAINS-I Aganist I.the CRAMPS-Psychadelic Jungle.SEVEN SECONDS-(1st album).SEPULTUA-Choas A.D. ...all for a quarter apeice!!!!

Too cool! All this cost me $5.00!!! Yowsa!!!

Man, that is a killer music haul. I have Group Sex on a CD re-release and it's awesome. Circle Jerks are one of those bands that seem to encompass an entire era in their music. When I think 80s punk, I think Circle Jerks.

Silent Night, Bloody Night is a favorite of mine. I picked up a copy of it in a DVD set for about .50 cents or so. There is a lot of strangeness contained within the film, and I love the twist that they unveil towards the end. Very underrated and overlooked slasher.

A bald man named Savalas visited me last night in a dream. I think it was a Telly vision.

I watched the SILENT NIGHT,BLOODY NIGHT late last night...and it was defintly NOT what I expected! Thinking I had bought a standerd low budget slasher flik, I discovered a early'70's weird-ass film...full of bizzare twists and haunting madhouse scenes done in sepia tones...and the first killing came as a nice bloody surprize! A good movie-that is well worth more than a single veiwing!

KONGA is a terrible little film and I doubt that side of the dual sided/single layered flipper will be getting much use - as others around the web have stated, this is exactly the same as the individual release of KONGA a while back.

As for YONGARY - the menu design is atrocious and, aside from a variety of dub and subtitle options (the original Korean audio is apparently lost), the disc is bare bones. But the print, my god, the print! The new 2.35:1 transfer is utterly fantastic - with strong colors and contrast and little, if any, damage.

After the disappointment of the new PLANET OF DINOSAURS disc, this one is a real pick-me-up.

I've got a soft spot for Konga. There is something about it I like. Maybe Michael Gough's spit-flying, over the top performance.

Shadowwww.bmoviegraveyard.comThe FDA has been looking for a generic name for Viagra. After careful consideration by a team of government experts, it recently announced that it has settled on the generic name of Mycoxafloppin. Also considered were Mycoxafailin, Mydixadrupin, Mydixarizin, Dixafix, and of course, Ibepokin.

Recently nabbed Canibal Ferox (VHS) and on a whim grabbed one called Silip. Don't know exactly why other than it looked bad. Has anyone ever seen that one? It only cost me 7$ so I shouldent be out either way

Emanuelle and the last cannibalsEmanuelle in AmericaEmanuelle Around The World

I'm planning a series of reviews of them for my site. All of them completely uncut, all of them completely sleazy and deeply troubling. I can never seem to reconcile with the arousing beauty of Laura Gemser juxtaposed by Joe D'Amato's insistence of filling the scenes between her nudity with bestiality and brutal violence. I guess I'd call the Black Emanuelle series pornography for misanthropes.
